Dsicotots Party

Join us for an activity packed children’s disco party with Discotots this February half term!

Packed with unforgettable feel good music, disco lights, bubbles and lots of amazing props, Discotots parties are on a level of their own. Children will be amazed and enthralled – and adults will be too! Dress up and have family friendly fun at the Farm.

On Thursday 27th February we’ll have two parties at 11:30am and 1pm. Both parties are aimed at children aged 3-8 years old.

Before or after the party, you can enjoy our fabulous seasonal trail, see the animals, wander through the woodland, and explore the rest of our Care Farm. Spot wildlife in the woods, discover Gnome Man’s land, find the pond, and enjoy our updated outdoor park.

Please arrive at the Farm at least 15 minutes before the party is due to start, this will give you time to get down to the Sports Hall and settle in.

All children must be accompanied and supervised by a responsible adult.

Share The Love With The Small Animals

During this 30 minute activity, children will get the chance to meet and interact with some of our smaller fluffy animals. A member of our Animal Care Team will lead the session and children will be able to hold and stroke some of our small animals. They’ll have the chance to ask questions and learn all about these little cute creatures.

Meet the Small Animals is an ideal introduction to animals, especially if you are considering getting a pet. Being with animals is a great way to build confidence and relax.

Please note: This activity is aimed at children over the age of 4 years old. Children must be accompanied by an adult, but adults will not need a ticket for the Meet the Small Animals session but everyone visiting the Farm will need an entrance ticket.
